Drawing inspiration from a diverse array of cultural icons, including the timeless allure of Marilyn Monroe and the whimsical charm of Minnie Mouse, Jacobs reimagined classic doll dresses with a surreal twist. The result was a series of looks that blended nostalgia with avant-garde flair, creating a collection that was both a nod to the past and a leap into the future.
